DESCRIPTION
It takes timely, high quality data to achieve the insights needed to identify cost reduction opportunities for your buildings. But where do you start? How do you collect utility data then use it to benchmark for sustainability reporting and reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions? In Urjanet's webinar “Reduce Building Operating Costs With Energy Data” we discuss how to cut operating costs at the building level and across all the facilities within your organization. This session features Chris Happ, CEO of Goby LLC. Goby’s SaaS-based SeaSuite™ platform allows its users to track sustainability in a single cloud-based interface. SeaSuite™ customers average 5-10% cost reductions just by tracking energy consumption. “Goby’s SeaSuite™ customers can fight climate change through greater energy efficiency,” Happ said. “In order to achieve insights to cut carbon emissions, it takes accurate data from a facility’s monthly energy bills.” Now, by partnering with Urjanet, Goby is enabling its SeaSuite™ users with access to near real-time, big data services that automate the collection, normalization and delivery of data from a rapidly growing list of more than 900 utility providers. Instead of relying on data entry clerks to manually input data, Urjanet’s proprietary platform aggregates data from thousands of sources to deliver it directly into applications such as SeaSuite™. The webinar panel will also include Jerome Montrone, SVP of Beacon Capital, who will speak to how his team uses Goby’s technology powered with energy data to help improve performance. He is currently overseeing the sustainability and energy programs for Beacon’s entire US and European Portfolio, and completed more than 60 LEED projects including LEED NC GOLD Certification for Beacon’s Tour First property, the tallest building in France. His successful proprietary energy savings programs have led to significant reductions in Beacon’s carbon impact and energy use and were recognized by Beacon Capital Partners winning several ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year awards and a Sustained Excellence Award last year. He is also member of the Real Estate Round Table. For more information, visit www.urjanet.com and keep up with Urjanet on Twitter @urjanet

“The initiative is part of a pledge...to decrease greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent by 2050 from 2005 levels.”
De Blasio Orders a Greener City, Setting Goals for Energy Efficiency of Buildings
“Global warming was much more of an abstraction to New York City until two years ago.
There’s a moral imperative to act.”
- New York City Mayor, Bill de Blasio
What role does data play?
“If data is the foundation of all analytics, then energy data is the foundation of all energy management decisions.”
- Alisdair McDougall, Verdantix
How can we use energy data to reduce our building operating costs?
ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager allows firms to:
Measure carbon

Verify & track savings
Report on performance
Gain industry recognition
Set investment priorities
Have you asked yourself…?
Are you still manually entering data from paper utility bills? Are you doing this for all of the buildings in your portfolio?
Manual data collection is prone to human error that results in frequent mistakes that can be very costly.
Are you leaving behind a significant amount valuable data? Is your data set incomplete?
What process does your accounting team use for capturing information from utility bills? How does your energy data get to energy management?
Have you asked yourself…?
Are the inconsistencies in the data due to different billing cycles?
Failure to account for all the days in an invoice period can lead to almost a 3% reporting error.
Have you asked yourself…?
Does your lack of data make you feel exposed to risk or missed opportunities?
If the goal is to reduce energy costs and consumption, but you don’t have all the data, are you making the right decisions?
Have you asked yourself…?
Is your team manually aggregating and normalizing your utility bill data?
Is your data coming from multiple sources across geographically different locations?
Have you asked yourself…?
Are you waiting on your monthly utility bills to get the data you need?
Long delays make it impossible for energy and facility managers to react and make real-time decisions.
Have you asked yourself…?
These are all questions to ask the teams who are responsible for energy management, facilities, accounting, and sustainability
